CCW Advertising

There have been threads devoted to CCW badges, gun T-shirts, and bumper stickers. Here is a new one I saw today on the way to the gunshow. I was behind a car that had a license plate that read “ICARYDOU”.

I just don't get those who want to advertise that they carry like they're going to score cool points.

Concealed means concealed.

Yes, but you'll have to do something real stupid to find out!

Eh, whatever - to each their own. I wouldn't do it, I don't even put NRA stickers on my car/house (I did however put one on the windshield of my golf cart).

Is he hurting anyone?

It's a way of expressing his rights, so be it. Who knows, maybe he's disabled and doing whatever he can to deter criminals. Everyone has their shoes to walk in, I try to stay in my own if at all possible.

I don't believe in advertising to the world that I own guns or that I carry. To me, that just makes you and your house/car/truck a target for thieves!:yup:

I saw a bumper sticker the other day that said I AM A CHRISTIAN AND I CARRY A GUN. Now I don't know if either of those are true and I don't care. Was I supposed to get upset or something because he stuck that on his bumper? What am I missing here?

I would be willing to bet that 99.9% of the population wouldn't even get it. This is a very subtle way of communicating with other gun enthusiasts, I suspect. I seriously doubt the soccer mom in the Suburban behind him would have any idea what that meant. I mean, even if it were spelled out in plain English, "I Carry, Do You?" I still suspect the vast majority would have no idea what it means.. "Carry? Carry what?"

In which case I suspect the sheer fact that you noticed puts you into the small group who the plate was targeted for.
